The police have arrested a member of Parti Keadilan Rakyat (PKR) to help
in the investigation into an alleged death threat issued against
Sarawak Chief Minister Tan Sri Abdul Taib Mahmud, Sarawak CID chief
Datuk Zulkifli Hassan said.

He said the 34-year-old man, who is a member of the Sarawak Angkatan
Muda Keadilan (AMK), was held at 9.20 pm Monday when he was at the
Kuching international airport with several PKR members to see off
Solidariti Anak Muda Malaysia (SAMM) chairman Badrul Hisham Shahrin,
also known as Chegubard, who was returning to Kuala Lumpur.

The police had obtained a court order to remand him for three days, he said.
The suspect is believed to have posted on a Facebook account on Dec
27 a statement allegedly containing words constituting a death threat
against Taib, he added.

In the midst of the all-out attack on the government by the
opposition because of the proposal to raise the toll price for 13
intercity highways effecting next year many of the opposition supporters
are unaware that these toll hike was started by their own leader, Datuk
Seri Anwar Ibrahim himself.

This is because from the 13 toll concession that is involved next
year, most of them was built with the permission of Anwar as the
Ministry Of Finance in between 1992 to 1998.

It is true that the job to regulate the building of such highways was
done by the Ministry of Works, head by the legendary Datuk Sri (Now Tan
Sri) Samy Vellu, but Anwar as the Minister of Finance is also involved
and this includes the concession agreement whereas the government has to
pay a large amount of money if these toll companies were unable to
raise the price of tolls.

As an alternative to these payment, the Ministry of Finance at that
particular time which was led by Anwar Ibrahim made a specific clause
that allow the government to extend the concession period to avoid the
price hike of tolls.

A few times, the government used their power as stated in the
concessional agreement to extend the concession period and the users
(people of Malaysia) do not have to pay any added cost. As a matter of
fact, according to the original agreement, the North South Highway which
was run by PLUS Berhad of whom was supposed to end their concession in
2025, was extended a few times. The last time a toll concession was
extended was up to 2038 as a reasonable reason for the government not to
raise the toll.
This particular situation may be effective by a shorter time period,
but for a more lengthy period this will burdens toll users as they need
to pay a higher price, much more than it is now.

This is the impact that we can see now when the government can no
longer extend the concession period to halt the rising toll charges and
was forced to allow the company to raise the price of toll as stated in
the original concession agreement.

All of this is the results of Anwar’s critical thinking during his
tenure as the minister of Fianance. Other than 10 more highway
concession that was built during his tenure as the minister of finance,
The concession agreement is stated above where the road user do not have
to pay a certain extra charge as to get the privilege of using a
hassle free road.

For your information, the Najib Razak administration has never extend
any concessional period for any highway in Malaysia since Datuk Seri
Najib Razak became the Prime Minister in 2009.

What was done by the PM is to let go of government shares in PLUS
and gave it to UEM Berhad and KWSP and nothing was hiked for 5 years
(2010 to 2015) and when it is going to be raise in 2016, the hike is for
about 5% for every year is much more lower then according to the old
concessional agreement (10% perannum).

The Central Executive Committee election that was held last
December is still not valid even though a year has passed. The recount
that was made on January received a lot of criticism from their own
members who suspected that there are manipulations when many of them did
not receive a proper notice of meeting.
This particular controversy was the trigger for the re-election that was held last September.

However, the re-election was done in a controversial manner where
more delegates were “missing” compared to the earlier election. At the
same time DAP stubbornly refuse to entertain any complaints by their
members or orders made by the ROS. The DAP still conduct their annual
congress even though the CEC members were not yet legitimise.

DAP cannot run from the law or the wrath of their own members.
Because of that, they do not want the party to send any reports to the
ROS regarding the congress progression and also the CEC elections.
As expected, the report made by the DAP is as if useless and they are not serious in handling the matter.
It is ridiculous as this is a big problem but it is only reported in a
three page letter. The truth is, if the names of the delegates who
“disappear” or went missing must have been a few pages long.

What happened is, this shows that whether the DAP is really dumb or
they do not know how to make a report for an investigation, or the DAP
is really trying to show their triad style nature to the ROS.
Whatever it is, we are inclined to believe that the DAP is really
dumb and can only act like a hooligan when faced with the authority.

If the DAP is not stupid, then all the problem concerning the CEC
will not happen. Is it really begins with a “computer error”? Because
they are only counting 2,000 votes.
Who can forget, during the presentation of the supermega project
regarding the undersea tunnel that was said by their representative as a
typo error?

How it is the drainage project to avoid flood was given out without
the proper channel with open tender? And it is not mentioned in the
meeting as they say that they took the wrong minute of meetings?
Isn’t this is the proof that the DAP is consist of stupid people?
If that is still not enough to show how stupid DAP is, then
understand that only the dumbest Chief Minister will go overseas to
promote their very own state while defaming the country. Who else if it
is not Lim Guan Eng himself?

We do not know whether that Lim Guan Eng is stupid or too arrogant or
too arrogant to understand his own stupidity. However, his own
stupidity will not bring any help to his state, his party or even
himself.
We do not know what the voters think when they elected that
particular party in the last PRU. If they are still voting for the DAP
in the next election, then we can only cross our fingers and hope for
the best.

Maybe those who votes for the DAP continues their princip that they
do not care whether their leader is stupid and violent as long as their
representative is a Chinese, they will have no problem with that.

Anwar Ibrahim’s sodomy trial must be the longest sexual crime trial ever recorded. Anwar was acquitted last year for reasons that it was unsafe to convict him over DNA samples which was not handled properly. This, despite the samples matched his, and despite the fact that CCTV recordings, timings and witnesses’ testimonies are all pointing towards Anwar.

His acquittal is inconsistence with his stories about the government having influenced in the judiciary and that he would never win the case. All the years, Anwar has been going around the world telling the same story of the cruel regime of BarisanNasional. According to him, the BN leaders, whoever they are, Mahathir or Abdullah or Najib, they all just want him dead or locked-up.

However, Anwar is ever free to roam the world, telling all these stories without being shot dead by the cruel regime. He even managed to give quite a tough fight in the last election which he claimed to be the most unfair and unclean, with results already set for the BN to win big.

What is even more mind-boggling is that he won the sodomy case and forced the victim to appeal.

The inconsistencies in his stories are what caused the people to turn away from him. His best buddies, his most trusted aides, his confidantes, his followers are all abandoning him in a steady flow. His own people, the Malays, have no more respect for him except for a small number who believes in liberalism and supports the rights of LGBT.

Thus, makes his guilt of sodomy even more obvious and convincing.

It is a common knowledge of the Malaysians that Anwar Ibrahim is a liar and a bisexual. Anwar Ibrahim has been telling lies all his political life. There must be a reason why he is called the Chameleon by the Economist.

As what is expected from a guilty person, the Appeal for the sodomy case which is scheduled today, has certainly makes Anwar uneasy, could be a little scared.

Oh yes, Anwar is not as brave and strong as he claimed to be. We can never forget how he ran frantically to the Turkey’s Embassy when the police report was made against him. As much as he likes to be compared to the great leaders of the world like Mandela or Gandhi, Anwar is not anywhere near them. Anwar is afraid of jail-time, most probably because, unlike them, Anwar is guilty as charged.

Just as predicted, whenever Anwar is scared, he would be running to his friends in the west for help. Amnesty International (AI) is first to come to the rescue on this one by publishing an article claiming that the charges against Anwar is politically motivated.

AI said that the charge is an attempt to stop Anwar from running for election. AI must have forgotten that the election is over and nobody stopped Anwar from contesting. As a matter of fact, Anwar’s majority had dropped quite drastically and shamefully for a man so well-known and ‘praised’ internationally. His coalition though, had performed quite well.

Obviously, it was a fair and clean enough election.

If Anwar’s western buddies have a little intelligence, they should have stayed away from Anwar in order to help him. The ‘interference’ from AI will only convinced Anwar’s followers and supporters - the Malaysians, that he is a bisexual and he did sodomized the victim. Isn’t LGBT rights is one of AI’s interest?

AI might have been promoting itself as an independent organization which fights for human rights, transparencies and justice but one would have to be as naive as a baby to believe so. On page 11 of Amnesty International Limited’s 2011 Report and Financial Statement (.pdf) it states (emphasis added):

The Directors are pleased to acknowledge the support of the John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation, the Oak Foundation, Open Society Georgia Foundation, the Vanguard Charitable Endowment Programme, Mauro Tunes and American Jewish World Service. The UK Department for International Development(Governance and Transparency Fund) continued to fund a four year human rights education project in Africa. The European Commission (EuropeAid) generously awarded a multi-year grant towards Amnesty International’s human rights education work in Europe.”

One doesn’t have to dig far to figure out who is behind AI – it’s the same old enemies of the world: the Neocons and George Soros as the main funder.

Just in case Anwar’s western buddies didn’t know; we, Malaysians, are not very fond of the Neocons and George Soros. So, even though the Appeal’s verdict could be in favourof Anwar, again, AI’s interfering stunt is not going to help Anwar in the next election. If Anwar won the case, he will also be losing more supports from the Malaysians - thanks to his brilliant western buddies.

Picture this scenario. Two opposing factions declare their allegiance to their country. One works to develop the nation positively although not perfectly while the other consistently runs down the country locally and abroad supposedly for the rakyat’s sake. Internationally, the nation’s prestige is on the downward trend. Many conclude that things are not well on the home front. Whom would you trust?

Despite such reports, many are still hoodwinked into thinking that Pakatan Rakyat is doing all it can for the country but what have they REALLY done for Malaysia? Look at the following table, which is a compilation of the ways in which PR has put Malaysia on the road to destruction.

Listing all the grouses raised by Opposition is an arduous and impossible task. They have NOTHING good to say about the government. However, let us go down to the brass tags. What has Pakatan Rakyat done to DEVELOP the nation?

•Do they have a good record of accomplishment in securing foreign investments on their own without riding on BN effort

•Since 2008, have they produced their Shadow Cabinet to prove their leaders can be better than BN leaders?

•For every criticism thrown at the government, have they proposed concrete ways to overcome problems highlighted?

•For every criticism hurled against the government, have PR been innocent and blameless in NOT doing the same actions they condemned?

•Has any Pakatan leader ever praised or promoted our country locally or internationally in speeches or social networking platforms?

•Has any Pakatan leader/party ever revealed a national plan for development for country or has this been only for one or two states?

•Has Pakatan Rakyat ever assured Malaysians or foreigners that our country is a fantastic place to live and to invest?

•Apart from complaining, ranting and disgracing our government about corruption, wastage etc, what has Pakatan Rakyat done for Malaysia as a whole?What is their motive? Is it to develop Malaysia or to develop their agenda by putting this nation on a path of destruction?

The battle for MCA leadership is getting intense with
allegation of money changing hands in return for votes and allegiance
changes accordingly to the contestants’ whims and fancies or to their
benefits.

There are claims that some 120 party division chairmen around the
country have been receiving some sort of allowances to ensure the
divisions’ delegates allegiance and votes for those who pay while ghost
writers have also been involved in being paid to promote certain
individuals.

At present three candidates have already confirmed their candidacies
while outgoing president Datuk Seri Chua Soi Lek is still keeping his
intention close to his heart, who observers said he might just enter the
fray on the 11th hour to block contender Datuk Seri Liow Tiong Lai’s chance of victory.
The three are Liow, Datuk Ong Tee Keat and Gan Peng Sieu.

Liow is said to have presently command some 1,000 voters of the 2,385
delegates to the party poll on Dec 21 and he is working hard to
influence some 600 to 700 more delegates to ensure he gets the post.

Observers said former president Ong does not seem to fair good as he
seems to be able to only woo some 200 delegates who still sympathise
with him while Gan is said to have some 900 delegates with him.
Although Gan had rubbished allegations that he is Chua’s proxy, it is
understood that delegates have already ‘seen through the lines who Gan
is’ but this does not deter them from supporting him as a leader.

Observers said Gan on the other hand may go for deputy president
against Datuk Dr Wee Ka Siong is Chua decides to join the number one
battle at the last minute.

If such things happen, then the battle will see Ong being squashed
leaving the arena for two ‘big boys’ Chua and Liow while for deputy will
be Chua’s purported boy Gan against Liow’s running mate Wee.
It is said that depending on the result of the contest, if Chua wins,
he may step down mid-term and hand over the presidency to Gan, if Gan
wins number two.

“It’s a game of power and keeping control of the party but still, the
most important thing is whether MCA can rally the Chinese community to
support Barisan Nasional (BN).

“Right now, Malaysians know MCA does not have support from the
community and as long as MCA keeps busy fighting for power and
leadership control, the party can never influence the community to
support BN.
“The party leaders need to get real…feel the pulse of the community and seek their wishes and needs…then try fulfilling them.

“If the party leaders, whoever they may be, fail to do this, then
they will end up like Gerakan in the next general election,” said an
observer.

Is it going to be a Waterloo for some Penang DAP stalwarts
come December 1st when Penang DAP members vote at their state polls?
Clearly, it will be a showdown of many sorts because many issues are
likely to make the party implode.

Is the December 1st 2013 event legal? According to Section 15(6) of
DAP constitution, the CEC must set the dates for the conventions. Until
now, the Registrar of Societies (RoS) has yet to acknowledge and
recognize the new central executive committee (CEC) elected onSeptember
29th. If so, all state-level conventions would be deemed illegal. Worse
still, some sacked members had voted in the party re-election and are
rightly “illegal delegates” because DAP never issued member
reinstatement letters and they should not have voted. Legal?

Even though the RoS has given the CEC to submit a report within 60
days from the date of the election on September 29th 2013, it is
shocking to learn that DAP Secretary-general Lim Guan has submitted a
mere ‘three-page’ report. After all the hue and cry over the December
2012 disastrous CEC election (which triggered a string of complaints
from DAP members leading to the RoS declaration that it would not
recognize the results and ordered re-elections or risk it being
de-registered), shouldn’t LGE have diligently submitted a flawless
report. What then is the real reason for such a flippant report?

What is more damning is news that DAP secretary-general Lim Guan Eng
has yet to send all documents to the Registrar of Societies (RoS),
including the name lists of party members who attended its central
executive committee (CEC) re-election on Sept 29. Does it appear as
though it is a deliberate move to delay RoS investigations into
legalizing the CEC? If so, the natural outcome would be for RoS to
deregister DAP for fresh elections to be held. If so, it would possibly
result in election of candidates favored by the ‘masters’ rather than
members.

If that were not the case, it would clearly be a case of legal
incompetency. The position of Secretary-General of any political party
requires quick action, commitment and pro-active deliberation and
promptness in decision-making. Failure to meet expectations should
compel one to step down for he would have led the party down.

Rumblings from the ground indicate a deep divide between LGE’s
supporters and Penang DAP members – a clear indication that all is NOT
well on the Penang front. Recent reports indicate how one particular
leader has insulted a high-ranking civil servant publicly – a definite
blot of red ink in the DAP report card.

On December 1st, 2013, 1112 delegates in Penang will vote for the new
DAP leadership in Penang. Will they rise to the occasion and give
Penang a new breath of life by voting in WORTH candidates and not those
considered of worth to a Tokong? Over to you, Penang DAP members. Do it
right, for Penang!

Kelantan state government is looking at a very long internal
feud now that the ‘rebel leader’ Datuk Husam Musa had retained his
vice-presidency and Deputy Mentri Besar Datuk Nik Amar Nik Abdullah
failed to grab the deputy presidency post from incumbent Mohamed Sabu.

The ‘bitter’ Husam is not expected to slow down on his onslaught
pinpointing weaknesses in the state led by Mentri Besar Datuk Ahmad
Yakob, who deputy failed to unseat Mat Sabu in the just concluded party
election.

Husam’s animosity with Ahmad began immediately after the May 5
general election when Ahmad did not pick Husam in the state exco
line-up, cutting off his influence and anger his followers.
Before the state assembly begun in June, Husam’s followers had
demonstrated at the State Secretariat demanding for Husam to be
appointed as exco but Ahmad ignored the call.

In relation to the Kelantan debacle, PAS has been ‘living’ with two
factions – liberals and fundamentalists – where the liberals have been
trying to ‘worm’ into the leadership and move the party closer to Parti
Keadilan Rakyat (PKR and DAP.

Being closely associated with PKR supremo Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim,
the liberals had plenty of leeways in the ties in the run-up to the
general election where even the party spiritual chief Datuk Nik Aziz Nik
Mat had been seen as favouring whatever they did.

And Husam was seen as Nik Aziz’s ‘blue-eye boy’ where when the former
was Mentri Besar, Husam was not just an exco but whatever he did was
‘sanctioned’ by Nik Aziz – from mooting out development projects to
strengthening the ties with partners in Pakatan Rakyat (PR).

However, luck was not with him when Nik Aziz stepped down from Mentri
Besar post and he is left to fend himself against the fundamentalists
leadership in the state who obviously have many things against his days
with Nik Aziz.
With the party election concluded and Husam is in the top party
heiracrhy, the internal feud does not see an end as Husam is expected to
take the ‘bull by the horns’ given that Nik Amar lost to unseat the
liberal Mat Sabu.

Knowing that he has the backing of party members since the party
delegates had retained him in the vice-presidency, Husam sees no reason
to stop ‘knocking’ the fundamentalists so that he still has his way to
further strengthen ties or in other words, make Kelantan toe the way of
Pakatan Rakyat.
Kelantan has been trying to distance from the pact as the ruling
fundamentalists have been trying to work closely with Barisan Nasional
(BN) to develop the state as well as finding a way to implement the
Hudud.

Husam’s liberal colleagues in PAS have been trying to stop the state
leadership from working together with BN and delay the implementation of
Hudud as desired by partners DAP while PKR is quiet about it.

Even now, Kelantan leadership has already extent their hands to BN
federal leaders for meeting to work on development and Islamic issues,
which worry the liberals in the party.
If the meeting occurs, then Husam and his liberals colleagues have got a big problem in their hands which worry Anwar and DAP.

And for Husam and Mat Sabu and all the liberals in the party is that
if the relationship between Kelantan PAS and BN particularly Umno works,
then their aim to see PAS as the Malays rallying point for Pakatan
Rakyat will be just a dream.

Pro-Opposition portal, the Malaysian Insider today posted an
article regarding the recent PAS’s Muktamar titled 5 Things that should
be learned from the PAS Muktamar.

PAS Muktamar or party election has already been a hot topic for these
past few weeks. The election was full of chaos and mess especially
during the Vice President votes are being tallied. Many of the PAS
delegates were unhappy with the way the election was handled.

To add salt to injury, a rock concert was organized even though
before this PAS were one of the parties who banned rock concerts
especially if it involves international artist. Many of their own
supporters are baffled how the concert were permitted in PAS’s stage.

However, these are not the lessons that the Malaysian Insider meant. 5
lesson that was said by the Malaysian Insider was 1. The support shown
by the enemy (Utusan Malaysia) towards pro-Ulama’ candidates, 2. To
avoid any confrontation within the party, 3. Respect among candidates
and supporters in the party elections and avoid any acts especially from
the Ulama’ supporters, 4. Learn from Mazlan Aliman who has worked hard
to gain the confidence of the people in issues such as the FELDA
dispute, 5. Conducting an election is not an easy task.

Malaysian Insider clearly supports the victory of Anwarinas without
trying to hide their prejudice against the Ulama of PAS. Even Mazlan
Aliman was anointed as the hero as he managed to create an issue out of
thin air.

It seems that what is important for Pakatan Rakyat is to create issue and not to resolve issue for the people of Malaysia.

The Malaysian Insider article shows that the external influence in
PAS is arranging who will win and who will lose and it shows that this
PAS election is the dirtiest the party has ever seen in their history.

This actually proves that the vote count which was one of the longest
vote counts in PAS election was full of controversy. Mat Sabu and Husam
who was caught breaching the vote counting room in the middle of the
night have also raised many questions. The early announcement which is
different from the official results makes the people of Malaysia wonder
the PAS’s integrity. Imagine, they have all this problem with only 1,086
ballot tickets to be counted.

However, The Malaysian Insider potrayed it as something that is not
that important and invite the Pakatan Rakyat to learn a lesson from this
particular foray. The portal double standard position can be seen
clearly as they were very critical of SPR who had done the job 1000
times better than PAS in counting the votes of 13.3 million ballot
tickets.

If the Malaysian Insider is really a portal that is truly just and
independent, then it is wise for them to analyse what actually happened
in the DAP’s CEC and not just the PAS election. It is much better if
they would learn from the PKR election which we saw Zaid Ibrahim
resigned from the particular party because there are more than a 100
complaints about vote manipulation.

However, the Malaysian Insider is not an impartial news portal. It
might as well maybe one of the hidden hands that regulate the PAS
election. Thus, it is not shocking to see that only 10 out of 27
positions was won by the Ulama’. We have to exclude one of the 10 Ulama
as it is difficult to determine that Hadi Awang is among the Ulama’ or
Anwarinas.

Even though the Malaysian Insider tries to show that all of this is a
small and usual matter in a political party election, the portal has to
accept that arranging an election is not something easy.
Thus, indirectly it shows that SPR is a better electoral body which
is clean, efficient and credible compared to the Pakatan Rakyat.

A number of news outlets have reported that Angola has "banned"
Islam and started to dismantle mosques in a bold effort to stem the
spread of Muslim extremism.

Weekly French-language Moroccan newspaper La Nouvelle Tribune published an article
on Friday sourcing "several" Angolan officials, including the Southwest
African nation's minister of culture, Rosa Cruz, who reportedly offered
the following remarks, which have been translated from French: "The
process of legalization of Islam has not been approved by the Ministry
of Justice and Human Rights, their mosques would be closed until further
notice."

The media reports have not described why exactly Islam apparently
faces a need to be legalized despite its presence in the country for
many years.

OnIslam.net reports that the African economic news agency Agence Ecofin
wrote that Cruz made the statement at an appearance last week before
the 6th Commission of the National Assembly. The website goes on to note
that, "According to several Angolan newspapers, Angola has become the
first country in the world to ban Islam and Muslims, taking first
measures by destroying mosques in the country."

Even Angola President José Eduardo dos Santos has weighed in on the controversy, as he was quoted in Nigeria's Osun Defender
newspaper on Sunday as saying, "This is the final end of Islamic
influence in our country," according to the OnIslam.net report.

The reported comments by Cruz and Santos echo the stance of the
governor of the country's Luanda province, Bento Francisco Bento, who
reportedly maintains "that radical Muslims were not welcome in Angola
and that the government was not ready to legalize the presence of
mosques in the country," according to a La Nouvelle Tribune summary of
Bento's take on the issue.

In a physical extension of the officials' sentiments about Islam's
place in Angola, La Nouvelle Tribune said that a minaret of an Angolan
mosque was dismantled last October, and that the city of Zango "has gone
further by destroying the only mosque in the city."

The emerging reports about Angola "banning" Islam and dismantling
mosques point to the anti-Islam sentiments held by many in the nation's
citizens, but they could not immediately be independently verified by
International Business Times.

Angola is a majority-Christian nation of about 16 million people, an
estimated 55 percent of whom are Catholic, 25 percent of whom belong to
African Christian denominations, 10 percent of whom follow major
Protestant traditions, 5 percent of whom belong to Brazilian Evangelical
churches and where only between 80,000 and 90,000 people are Muslim, according to the U.S. State Department.

As the dust settles down and PAS delegates leave Shah Alam, the
Islamist party’s future still a big question – will it play second
fiddle in the opposition pact of Pakatan Rakyat (PR ) or distance itself
and only co-operate on issues of mutual interests.

The victory of Mohamed Sabu or Mat Sabu as the party deputy president
on Friday poll reflected the members’ choice to go all out with DAP and
Parti Keadilan Rakyat (PKR) to capture Putrajaya, regardless of whether
the Islamic state and Hudud laws agenda are sidelined or forgotten.

Despite the call by the party’s Ulamak Council and the resolution
passed and adopted to review the party’s political co-operation in the
opposition pact and delegates spoke of being treated as ‘step children
in Penang” during the debate session, the fact remains in that the
review will be done with everything in favour to strengthen the ties.

PAS leadership poll on Friday was a tell-tale sign that the
fundamentalists faction has lost its internal war and its attempt to
make a comeback was only half victory as it only got information chief
Tuan Ibrahim Tuan Man in one of the three vice-president posts.

Even the 18 central committee members elected are split equally
between the ulamaks and liberals which further dampens the ulamaks’
faction to put on track the party’s objectives and struggles.

And party president Datuk Seri Abdul Hadi Awang did not commit in
anyway to support the fundamentalists in his policy speech where he
‘played safe’ by not touching on internal friction and the problems
within the opposition pact or about the ties in PR.

The fundamentalists with the backing of the Ulamak Council had tried
to distance itself from the parties in PR as they found out the party is
slowly moving far from its original objectives and its approach has
changed from educating the public about Islam to fighting human rights
issues.

Many party delegates who voted and members who attended the party 59th general
assembly as observers said Mat Sabu was chosen due to his availability
and his readiness to go to the forefront of the battle whenever needed
and not as assumed by outsiders that the liberals aligned to PKR de
facto chief Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim is now in control of the party.

One of the delegates from Terengganu said Mat Sabu was chosen because
he could rally the crowd when needed, he could face the police when
needed and he was also willing to go to jail if need be.
“He is versatile and available as he does not hold any government post or an assemblyman or MP.
“And he can rally crowd to PAS ceramahs or events.

“Compared to Kelantan Deputy Mentri Besar, despite being an ulamak
and intellectual and refined, we cannot allow him to go down and lead a
rally or face the police or risk being put in lock-ups a night or two.
“And party members and delegates know very well that Mat Sabu cannot
make decision as deputy president nor can he dictate any decision.

“It (the decision) need to be tabled at the central committee and
then referred to Dewan Ulamak (Ulamak Council) for endorsement before
implementation.

“So to me and the delegates as well as party members, the question of
liberals steering the party does not arise because of the check and
balance.

“It is the practical thing to have Mat Sabu to be in the forefront with his brashness and guts,” he said.
How far the thoughts to the truth is not known but one thing for
sure, Mat Sabu’s victory is obviously not total or wholesome because the
party highest policy body which is the central committee still needs
endorsements from the Ulamak Council for implementations of any
decision.

In short, Mat Sabu’s hands are still tied despite having Datuk Husam
Musa and Salehuddin Ayub in the vice-president posts to back him up.

And in such a situation, Anwar who is watching the party’s
development and those close to him in PAS cannot laugh loud because the
fundamentalists are still at the ‘driving wheel’.

And the delegates and observers left Shah Alam with a clear mind that the party is still in the hands of ulamaks.

Former MCA president
Datuk Seri Ong Tee Keat has announced his candidacy for the top post in
the party polls on Dec 21.

Speaking at a press conference here Monday, Ong said he had learnt
from his weakness and was a new man, adding that he wanted to bring the
party closer to the people.

Offering his services to the party, he said his experience as an MP
since 1989 and ability to interact warmly with the people would help
foster closer ties and regain their confidence.

"I will do what I can to bring the party closer to the people, regardless of race," he said.
Ong acknowledged that he has been called "lone ranger" but pointed
out that he would not have survived as an MP if he truly had been a lone
ranger.

"Whether it is true or not, I will leave it up to the wisdom of party members and the people.
"I humbly and sincerely seek the support of the people and the party," he added.

Ong was previously elected as MCA president in October, 2008, and
remained in the post until March, 2010 when he was ousted by current
president Datuk Seri Dr Chua Soi Lek.

He was also the Pandan MP for two terms from 2004, and Transport
Minister from 2008 to 2010. Ong did not contest in the 13th general
election in May.

The human being is in the most literal sense a political
animal, not merely a gregarious animal but an animal which can individuate
itself only in the midst of society. As the ideas of ruling class are in every
epoch the ruling ideas. The more man meditates upon good thoughts, the better
will be his world and the world at large as the object of the superior man is
truth.

“ For there is no
faithfulness in their mouth; Their inward part is destruction; Their throat is
an open tomb; They flatter with their tongue.”-Psalm 5:9

The Realization of Pruning Operation which has a specific
goals which no other than to let Lim Dynasty reigning power in DAP forever in
other word best describe as giving an absolute power and immunity to Lim Guan Eng.
He has almost finalised his strategy to allocate his army all over the country.
As a politician, he needs to have the ability to foretell what is going to
happen tomorrow, next week, next month, next year and to have the ability
afterwards to explain why it didn’t happen. Absolute power does not corrupt
absolutely, absolute power attracts the corruptible.

In Perak, after the fallen of infamous cousin Nga and Ngeh, the
famous sycophants of Perak, Kula and Thomas Wu will be the main person in Perak.
Both are die hard humble servant and ‘yes’ manto Lim Dynasty. Both can do anything
without saying no to all directives given by Lim Dynasty. Perak is secure.

After the long battle and reward for his true sacrifice to
Lim Dynasty as their humble servant, finally Tony Pua will lead Selangor. Teng
Chang Kim was not there anymore and has no say about this. Selangor is secure.

As current chaos related to Zairil winning in the recent CEC,
which contribute potential to unnecessary cleavage in DAP and to honour the
promises made to Zairil on leading Kedah which only be a temporary perch for
him. He will be replace by KP Teoh later. Kedah is secure.

Another humble servant of Lim Dynasty, which no other than
Anthony Loke, will lead Negeri Sembilan. This is the reward he gets after his
dying effort together with his duo Tony Pua to manipulate CEC election which
seen as a starting grid to rationalised Pruning Operation.

Goh Liong Sang will be eliminated and Lim Guan Eng nominated
Lai Keun Ban, MP Kota Laksamana to lead Malacca. The Old Lim opposed this
nomination. He has a bad history related to moral issue involving women. To
honour his father sacrifices upon him, Lim Guan Eng nominated Khoo Poay Tiong
which is currently MP Air Keruh to lead Malacca. Malacca is secure.

The next chapter will revealed more about sacrifices made
and rewards received for supporting Lim Dynasty agenda to conquer and reign
power in DAP. Famous English quote saying…..” there is no such things as free
lunch”. A person must earn money in order to be able to live his life, but he
must by no means live his life for the purpose of making money.

of the next election. A statesman thinks of the next generation.”- James

When a lie is spun to spin the minds of
Malaysians, sometimes, the spinning can spin right back at the source bringing
more damage than was intended. Whether it was 40 000 Bangladeshis, Myanmarese,
Cambodians or any other nationality, in aPress Statement on May 2nd, 2013,(http://tinyurl.com/huan55).AnwarDIDsay“at
least 40,500dubious
individualshave and are
still entering via this method of chartered flights via KLIA. This does
not include foreign nationals who are being moved through land routes and
seaports or other airport facilities such as LCCT.”

The fact remains that AnwarNEVERprovided evidence of how he derived
the figures of 40 500 even though he claimed there was “a sudden surge in the arrival
of dubious individuals on chartered flights since April 25th. These are foreign
nationals as well as Malaysians from Sabah and Sarawak who have been flown in
to Peninsula Malaysia.”

Today(http://tinyurl.com/huan56),Anwar said, "Yes, we said there were suspicious
voters, but wenever attach
the number 40,000.” He went on to argue that the number 40,000 was a
fictional specification perpetuated by UMNO bloggers.

However, his May 2nd 2013allegations about 40 500 dubious
individuals have been published not only in local websites but also in
international news portals such as the following:-

InFMT Today(http://tinyurl.com/huan64),Anwar Ibrahim said after the advanced
voting process, he said with proof that foreign nationals from India, Bangladesh,
Philippines and Indonesia were allowed to vote.

Where is the evidence?

Before GE 13, Anwar said “the number of
these flights, as many as 16 per day from East Malaysia primarily departing
from Kuching and Kota Kinabalu as well as Sandakan, Miri and Sibu, with some
flights using jumbo jets. The number of charter flights per day is more than
even the number of charter flights during the Haj season.”

Where is the evidence?

He claimed that based on his calculations,
as many as 4,500 people are being transported via the in-bound flights into
KLIA each day. This has been taking place each day with the exception of May
1st, since April 25th.

Where is the evidence?

Anwar claimed that the points of arrival
of these flights have been KLIA Sepang as well as Bayan Lepas and Senai. He
also claimed he had information that military aircraft (C130 Hercules) are
being used to bring in these phantom voters to land in smaller airports such as
BatuBerendam and Ipoh.

Where is the evidence?

Anwar has claimed that he had credible
documentary evidence that these groups of foreign nationals are being
transported from the airports to various sequestration points within
Selangor/Kuala Lumpur and the other affected states using transport provided by
various government agencies as well as charted bus operators.

Where is the evidence?

Before GE 13, Anwar stated his belief that
Election Commission in collaboration with the Prime Minister’s Office, and the
involvement of a number of other agencies are involved in this operation.

Where is the evidence?

Clearly, Anwar is trying to befuddle
Malaysians by splitting hairs over the real issue which is NOT about 40 000
Bangladeshis but HIS allegation that there were 40 000 dubious individuals.
Somewhere along the lineBEFOREthe Budget speech, someone must have
referred to 40 000 Bangladeshis. If not, why would High Commissioner to
Malaysia A.K.M. AtiqurRahman issue a statement saying:

“I want to clarify that it is absurd that 40,000 Bangladeshis had
come to Malaysia within a week to vote. This was claimed by some in the print
and online media.

“Our office believes that Malaysian and Bangladeshi laws will not
allow nor approve of it.”

Atiqur added that the “propaganda” of Bangladeshis voting in
Malaysia was a misrepresentation of facts.

Anwar owes it to Malaysians to explain and
back up his allegations with solid evidence lest we deduce

that a pathological serial liar is in our
midst for he has cried wolf so many times in the past (such as the infamous BN
crossover, which never was).

If he cannot or will not, then he should
step as PKR President, Pakatan Rakyat Leader and vacate his parliamentary seat.
Anyone who persistently misleads Malaysians in such a way that strife, fear,
anger, and disunity are spread via deceit does not have moral ground for public
office!

Tolerating intolerance

Intolerance is rampant at every level and in all age groups of the society, but it is more visible amongst the younger generation as our youth can be seen losing their altitude of patience over petty issues. We seriously need to think over it as what we are going to inculcate in them, which may help them seek success in future. Will it be tolerance or intolerance?

International Conference "Expose War Crimes – Criminalise War"

“Wars increasingly involve the killings of innocent people and are therefore, abhorrent and criminal. Killings in war are as criminal as the killings within societies in times of peace. Since killings in peace time are subject to the domestic law of crime, killings in war must likewise be subject to the international law of crimes. This should be so irrespective of whether these killings in war are authorised or permitted by domestic laws.”
